I greatly appreciate your video. I've never tasted a queen avacado. I'm in zone 9b. You may have mentioned your zone, and I missed it. Keep up the great information. Thank you for sharing.

[@TropicalGardenGuy]

I’m in z9b too

[@johnnysworld-backyardorchard]

Great video Jeff, I never saw or tasted a Queen before, but am looking forward to my Queen fruiting in the future based on your video! Thanks for your honest assessment of the Queen although it is the first fruit from your tree. Great video, thanks for sharing!

[@TropicalGardenGuy]

Sounds good!

[@growyourownavocados]

I also noticed that the Queen does well in high heat where some varieties don't do so well.

[@TropicalGardenGuy]

So far I’m finding that to be true

[@gilbertomartinez6981]

I still have my doubts its a queen, cause shape is all wrong looks closer to daily 11 shape.queen shaped more like a football but with distinct ridges on skin.

[@TropicalGardenGuy]

You bet

[@MaoWantsMoney]

That is big for an avocado 🥑 nice to know it tasted okay haha hopefully it will bear more flavorful fruits in the upcoming year. What do you think about growing it in a tropical area?

[@TropicalGardenGuy]

It’s worth a try though I saw a KZbin video about a guy trying to grow it in Florida, but didn’t do so well.

[@pjourneys5337]

So taste !

[@TropicalGardenGuy]

I agree!

[@bigg368]

How is your sense of smell and taste after your bout with covid? I just got over a bout of covid but my sense of smell and taste hasn't returned. I'm wondering if it's effecting the way you are tasting the avocado.

[@TropicalGardenGuy]

I lost taste for a day, all returned fine. There could of been a number of reasons the cado was a little bland. But even my wife tasted the fruit and echoed what I said. I guess ill have to wait till next year. The tree has set about 20 fruitlets…
